Explanation / Answer

Let omega = w ; a = alpha ; A = angle .

From rotational kinematics :

( w) ( dw )= ( a) ( dA)

Assume constant a and integrate :

[w2^2 - w1^2 ]/ [ 2 ] = ( a ) ( A2 - A1 )

a = [ w2^2 - w1^2 ] / [ 2 ] [ A2 - A1 ]

a = [ ( 30 )^2 - ( 95 )^2 ] / [ 2 ] [ 402 ]

a = [ 900 - 9025 ] / [ 2 ][ 402 ]

a = - 10.10 rad per s^2
